I modeled this after an antique leather purse I had.

I took almost a full day of work to craft it, but I am pleased. I use it mostly to hold my small tools and fire kit.

Nice! Very, very nice! What sort of leather did you use? I've been wanting to make something like this with a shoulder strap for general carry at events, the ren faire, etc.

It is veg tanned horsehide buttstrap. 6 oz thickness I believe. Treated with neatsfoot oil.

Nice! Is it dyed or stained in any way? The coloration sort of looks like a latigo or some other oil-tan.

No stain or dye. The color just comes from the neatsfoot oil.
